Nintendo charges so much for games
i’ve been t500 for the past few seasons, there’s hardly ever in the higher ranks because people usually just mass report cheaters while they’re in diamond or etc
and they get banned before they can climb any higher
didnt sunshine come out in 2002?
Shit the joycon is 80 effing dollars
people intentionally throw games to stop them
2001 i think
Unix please take it seriously if you get any pain. I wouldn't wish this upon my worst enemy. Except my upstairs neighbor. Fuck him.
It's GC, so probably somewhere there
either way old enough to drink
Joy-Cons are extremely expensive, it's absurd
when i smurf(ed) in diamond there was literally a cheater every other game
mule, if your upstairs neighbour ever moves out, please tell us
I mean, I'm used to the game price by now, but those Joy-Cons
whether it was subliminal or rage hacking
so we can celebrate with you
I bought a switch last month and youtube's like "100 reasons why nintendo sucks"
stop smurfing dammit
Buying a switch game is always like : *oof there goes 60 usd on literally any title *
If he moves out I will live stream it
Imagine living in a country where you have to be 21 to drink
usually it's like $10 cheaper in stores
lol
@humble falcon in public*
it's like dollar 10 cheaper
Only game I got for less is Celeste, which was 6 euro or something on sale. Normally 20.
I've got 182 berries 🙂
if i tried to buy odyssey in an actual store i'd get it MUCH more expensive
My joycon got drift and it was fucking 80 dollars to replace 🧂
With that said switch is great
I think odyssey might have been the only game I completed on switch
my joycons dont even detach 😎
I paid 630$ for my switch because it was the least expensive option
I hate framerate locks but especially on such a small screen
$630*
You can replace the stick for relatively cheap though
dollar 630
cause I’ve only ever owned the undockable versions
ikr, thats why i fixed it
no, now it is
Also, the screws they used in the Joy-Cons are of such a low quality, these things strip on the lightest touch I swear
lite version sucks i'd rather put more money on top of that price and buy a PS4 pro
I’m not about to do my own repairs when I can just go to target and get a new one without having to do a bunch of nerd stuff
I'll just always use $ instead of € but keep writing it after the number lol

just to mess with you chew >:)
I mean, if you want to spend 80 dollars on replacing it vs, 15 dollars or so fixing it
i could put like 100$ on top of the price i paid for switch, and get a ps4 pro bundle with 5 games
or no I won't, as long as you don't use the forbidden word at least
I mean it's $100 and 100€ in the same way it's $1.00 and 0,10€
omfg yes gow2 teaser i ccan't play it but i want it anyway
thats.... new...
Spending 80 doesn’t hurt anything but my principals
i would never
I’m just salty Nintendo would charge that
i played up to GOW:A i still have my PS3
Same
I haven't needed to replace any yet though, so I'm holding out hope I got a magic model that will work until the end of time
I thought I dodged joycon drift but 220 hours of dragon quest 11 did it in
my ps3 controller broke so i got some ps4 controllers cuz they were advertised as backwards comptabile
Oof
damn the fitness thing looks good, i dont need it i need the opposite of fitness
little did i know it was the shittiest BC to date
Hopefully Dragon Quest XI is worth the new Joy-Con though 🙂
Dq11 was godly
honestly if my joycon goes broke i'll literally just use joycontrol and a PS4 controller
I did all the optional shit even the super bosses
By the 220 hours I'm guessing it has way too much optional stuff? 🙂
I already have joycontrol set up for totally legit reasons and it's in python so
well ill prob be wfh permanently now lol. office is moving into a smaller office next year and moving to a rotational setup. sharing desk would just be weird, but im 30-40 mins away from office....
I think I cleared act 3 around 110 hours in and act 3 is considered a post game
The super bosses added another 100 hours
unless they just give devs dedicated desks
That’s how I remember it I could be remembering wrong
since our setups are different
your setups are just built different
That's quite long, although I'm guessing you 100%-ed it now?
DQ11 is amazing
i never heard of dq
I basically 99%’d it there’s a few optional quests I skipped that are literally not worth doing and would take me all of 10 minutes
I 100%'d the base game in 14 hours, still haven't finished the switch verison yet thogh
Ah I see.
so why not do them? wouldnt it feel nice to get that cool 100%
TSMC has officially passed Intel, Apple is shipping 5nm chips now
only bought the switch version so i could marry someone other than the boring firstr came
Have you 100%-ed BotW, though?
oh, sorry, %100, kneny
ipad
TSMC 7nm ~= Intel 10nm so they were kind of tied before (although TSMC seems to have a more capable/mature node)
Nah I got bored of botw after 2 dungeons but that’s probably because I was ocd and exploring every corner of the map
iPad Air
But it’s an amazing game
MBP or MBA is coming later this year still, supposedly
Which dungeons have you done?
only switch game i have is super mario odyssey because e-shop doesn't do regional pricing
what is ~=
The water one and one other one
roughly equal
If you haven't done the Gerudo one, that one is way better than the others imo
It’s been like a year since I played it
and few free ones obviously
ohh
i was gonna buy rocket league but today they announced it was gonna be free lmao
like how =/= is ≠
i was gonna buy rocket league but today they announced it was free lmao
@humble falcon woah really? nice
They announced that months back but sure
Botw 2 soon pls
wait what
it's BotW 0 😉
Oh god please
Yeah it's supposed to be ≈ but forget figuring out how to type that every time
hey!
Wasn’t botw 0 just some dynasty warriors spin off
They did recently say that development is still going good or something, so that's nice

Hyrule Warriors, yeah
Not interested tbh
botw 0 is a DLC to a dynasty warriors reskin
Also PC version is moving to Epic so fuck anyone who uses macOS/Linux and didn't buy it on Steam before it was pulled I guess
idc about zelda gimme SMO2
It looks better than the previous one at least
Dynasty warrior games are not my thing
they announced 2 big zelda games but no mario
sad it doesnt have smg2
Dynasty Warriors games can be fun for brief periods, you basically start in god mode and just mow things down
overpriced worse than homebrew emulation
My next game to beat is gonna be persona 5 festival golden royal whatever they named it, I love me some persona
@cedar spade what moved to epic? rocket league?
Rory is in the closet again
3D All-Stars?
stefvanschie: hahaha what a funny joke oh wait Nintendo already has my money
Rocket League is owned by Epic, no?
i just started Witcher 3, im liking it so far
@slim nymph yes
Currently going through Fire Emblem: Three Houses
Witcher 3 is amazing
Also I've got 3D All-Stars on preorder
It being limited time sucks
Forty hours in still at Part 1 🙂
Say goodbye to 1-3 months of your life aikar
i feel like its gonna spoil season 2 for me 😛
Limited time is stupid
they might release each for 20 tho
Amaranth: since June last year, yes
Witcher games have nothing to do with the books
Witcher 3 is not book canon so it’s not really related to the show, with that said the show isn’t super true to the books either
TSMC 7nm ~= Intel 10nm so they were kind of tied before (although TSMC seems to have a more capable/mature node)
@magic river I thought I remembered seeing some analysis that intel 10 and tsmc 7 weren't all that well tied
They're kind of set after the books but do a lot of weird things
@stiff yarrow im not a "100%er", i just wanna do story and side missions as it goes, but dont go out for EVERYTHING
and tsmc 7 was still a fair bit ahead of intel 10 at least for overall density
looks at 270 hours in BotW
They scrapped the native macOS/Linux Steam versions right after the acquisition but it still works under Proton afaik
should i get botw
i just finished RDR2 got prob 80%?
Density of SRAM isn't a good measure but TSMC did seem to have a decent advantage there
I was a 100%er for everything except getting all the treasures in skellige
I’m playing rdr2 now
It’s great
BotW is good, would recommend sbeve
yeah such a great game, i wanna do rdr1 now
don't have anything i can play rdr2 reeeeeeee
I couldn't bring myself to finish RDR2
k ty stefvan
O.o why?
also, "wait you guys play games? I only just played GTA V"
It's just the same story told 5 times in different settings
I still do 100%, only Switch game I've failed that for currently is Celeste.
Rdr1 wasn’t as good, I don’t really remember it much
eh not really at all
Rdr2 is on another level
But I've poured 160 hours into Celeste, good enough for me
I finished watch dogs 15 fps with 800x600 resolution and nvidia's like the new 3090
And running around hunting and robbing supply wagons isn't fun
Shut your mouth
you dont really gotta do that outside missions lol
Hunting is so relaxing
mmm i'm sniffing a circlejerk
It’s my favorite pass time
I finished watch dogs 15 fps with 800x600 resolution and nvidia's like the new 3090
@humble falcon nvidia cards are launching soon, it'll be ok
and if the prices don't look good enough for you, AMD is at least announcing something new v soon
No but the missions are a loop of the same shit happening over and over and I want my character to just fucking murder half the camp and GTFO
rip 2080ti owners tho
bro best hardware i have is a macbook air
treasure maps the best way to get money but i didnt even do them
That’s kind of true of rockstar games tho, I play it for story and atmosphere
it doesn't even support eGPU
So I just stopped playing because the missions were frustrating and the side content is tedious
i had enough from 1 of the missions rewards
I am an honorable cowboy who releases fish after catching them and pets dogs
lol
😊
lol, i may of petted a lot of dogs and said hello to a ton of people to "make up" for murdering lots of people and doing bad things.....
BOTW is basically my perfect game that isn't a 2D platformer 😛
it was like "shit sorry didnt mean to kill and loot you innocent man, let me go say hello 10 times as payment"
Yeah same
I accidentally fired my gun a lot early game getting used to the controls
i ended game with perfect honor with a very uh shady start
MM?
Majora's Mask
Open world games usually get tedious and I just start slamming out the missions to get them over with but I couldn't do that with RDR2 because the missions made me hate it more
When I found out you can shoot guns out of peoples hands I was like 
you really feel the "redemption" part in RDr2
BOTW never really got tedious, I always wanted to explore more
It only got tedious for me when I wanted to get all 900 korok seeds
Sounds like you forced yourself to play a game you didn’t like, I was in love with rdr2 atmosphere once you get out of that stupid fucking snow tutorial
Cause my god, that's a lot of korok seeds
Ok, yeah, fuck the korok seeds
Thank you
I personally find rdr2 hella relaxing
You only need like 300 to max out your inventory, after that it's just for a golden poo and OCD
I just walk through towns slowly doing random stuff in between missions
Hunting deer and shit
Even those 300 are way too many imo
I did them as I came across them which was a lot of them due to wanting to explore
yeah i kinda wanna play online to do the hunting stuff
But I didn't try to find them, really
I only tried to find them when I did everything else.
online isnt great but least there it feels more of a reward for progression
I got like 100 something seeds thinking I was doing well then someone in here told me there were 900 and I was like how the fuck did I miss 800
Actually I didn't do everything else, cause apparently getting all map locations on your map counts towards 100% and then I mean every small piece of text.
I thought online was going to save the game for me then I got on there and realized online is just the tedious open world bits but with other people
I don’t really like online games outside of competitive ladder climbing stuff
GTAO works because driving around the city causing mayhem is fun and doing it with other people is even better
Got ~270 normally, everything else was with a guide.
the end of rdr2 is great (not gonna say any spoilers) but its hard to play the sP anymore than that, rather just do MP and do stuff with others
just don't play on PC and GTAO is actually pretty good
plus seems like MP has some additional story to it
I’m probably going to replay rdr2 on ps5
whats wrong with gtao on pc
Most of my GTAO is doing race playlists with people though, not even cruising the city
Cheaters
my nephew replayed it for my mom, shes watching him as it was a movie
i mean im there to fuck shit up anyway ¯_(ツ)_/¯
they really should make an rdr2 movie, this would fit perfectly as a movie
it not only takes 99999 to just load into the open world, it's filled with hackers and don't even get me started on getting into a deathmatch lol
let the non gamers experience it
on my ps3 it's still silky smooth
If they actually know what they're doing with the movie, otherwise you get another 3/10 movie 🙂
and (mostly) no hackers cuz ( mostly ) no children are playing on it
Yeah but assholes will do things like headshot every player on an instance at once or put your character in some weird state that requires you to leave and rejoin or you can't enter/get out of cars
also imagine still doing p2p in 2020
damnit RDR2 Special Edition isnt on sale anymore
looks intensely at rockstar and nintendo
i make friends with most of the assholes and then i play in relative peace
Just don't play online with Nintendo games
im glad i played it without special editon. didnt need those boosts to make game easier.
survival of the fittest
just don't buy NSO... ever
NSO?
Nintendo Switch Online
Oh, I bought that before it even came out 😛
Honestly if i see a feature that's NSO only, i just assume it doesn't exist.
Splatton 2 let's see. Oh it's singleplayer only ok
Yeah same
I don't even use it
Like twice a year I'll play some of the virtual console games it gets you
Having to pay to be able to play online is bullshit anyway imo and the connectivity isn't even good, so whatever.
I don't play online
that mario battle royale they copied from that web game is NSO only -_-
and STILL P2P
iirc I thought I was going to be doing smash online
I heard that smash got it's own servers eventually but i'm not sure
Servers? On a Nintendo game? Unbelievable.
theres rumors ms is going to go away with paying for xbox online
yeah that would be so nice
they just bumped GamePass for PC from 5 to 10/mo, which is interesting, because onXbox GP ultimate is 5 for GP and 10 for online play.
Yeah instead you're going to pay for Game Pass Ultimate and that's the only way to get online 😛
nevermind it was false smash doesn't have servers
and people on reddit are like "that's worse!" lmao
game pass is actually a good deal
For a fighting game if you're doing 1v1 I think a server would make it worse
I have Apple Arcade and i love it
unless they move online play to 5/mo and GP is 10/mo for xbox
is it bad if i cant remember the last time i had breakfast
Well either you don't eat breakfast often or your memory is really bad
So I'd say yes
or it was just the same breakfast so you didn't really care
try a new food you've never tried before you'll def remember it then
well according to google you'll be dead in 72 hours chew
lol
i havent been eating breakfast lately. keto and IF to a degree, just no apetite to over eat
*8
google-chan
Powdered donuts as breakfast?
so im getting a good 10-14 hours of intermittent fasting lately
kill me google chan 
how tf do you do that
my meals today will be: goldfish (flavor blasted), tacos
me? im not hungry lol
in the case where you have two different exceptions thrown within a line of each other and are in the same scope, would it be better to have separate try-catch blocks so you can have write a more specific error message instead of a general one?
who said theyre my pets
do you have uwuifier in this server
Imo yes Hydraxus
dont eat pets you savage
who said they're pets
Today I'm having homemade lasagna
Or do you mean two entirely separate try/catch blocks?
Going to visit my grandparents
goldfish are pets, end of story
You can just add a new catch clause to an already existing one
the snack that smiles back ™️
ate like 16z of steak for dinner the other night. double baconator w/ no bun and a half size avocado salad last night. bratwurst and eggs for lunch today
(DiscordBot) No results.
😦
you missed an o
.wa 16 oz to metric
(DiscordBot) No results.
.wa 16 oz to grams
Oh is it oz?
(DiscordBot) Result: 453.6 grams - https://is.gd/IqAGF8
Wolfram|Alpha brings expert-level knowledge and capabilities to the broadest possible range of people—spanning all professions and education levels.
yes
Holy shit that's a lot
oh i missed the o lol
I suspect the equivalent cut in metric world would just be 500 grams
but thats all i pretty much had that day and didnt eat until 7pm last night
Ahh @wide chasm I'll just add another catch block. I forgot that even existed. Thanks!
I mean, if I eat out I don't even go over 200g of meat and for normal dinner I eat less than that.
I usually just do Exception1 | Exception2
And I doubt lunch and breakfast would combine to another 200g
You can't do that in kotlin 😦
"up to 6x time faster than top-selling chromebook" well yeha, my left toe is faster than that trash 😂
Top voted feature request for kotlin is multi-catch block
yep
chromebooks are nice for just general use though
Holy shit that's a lot
no wtf
iPad Air is also 2x faster than the fastest MBP
and they last for a really long time too
it's the d r e a m
chromebook is all fun and games until you dont have internet
Because they said it's 2x faster than the fastest Windows laptop which is the same or faster than the fastest MBP
Because they said it's 2x faster than the fastest Windows laptop which is the same or faster than the fastest MBP
@magic river lmfao what a lie
note thats around 1300 calories. considering that plus a shake is all i had for the day, I ate very little that day calorie wise
wat
I mean, considering how bloated windows is, i wouldnt be suprised
Windows bloat has nothing or almost nothing to do with compute benchmarks
theyre completely different operating systems
specint is specint
oh hell yeah, finally, scribble
My XPS 9300 is within a rounding error of 2020 13" MBP performance
what is MBP
xps 
most baluable product?
I mean the performance does differ but not 2x
I can't remember which one is faster but they're almost within the standard deviation for the benchmarks
MBP is MacBook Pro
geekbench times
MBP is faster
ive never owned/used a windows computer i woudl call "fast" and "smooth"
"arbitrary score that doesn't mean anything but just compare it anyway"
I installed windows on my mac and it was smooth enough
That's probably because you buy cheap windows computers 😛
i mean as smooth as you can get on a USB 2.0 external HDD
@mighty storm wut os do u use? linucks?
Spent $1500 on one and see what you get
i dont buy windows computers, im not dumb
Although I did put Ubuntu 20.10 on here
imagine buying windows just to change your background
20.10 is out?
No
ubuntu 
amaranth is in the secret club
(also I spent more than $1500...)
amaranth aren't you an (ex?) ubuntu dev?
Hi, I'm an Ubuntu Member, Ubuntu IRC Op, and former Ubuntu Developer 😛
What else would I use?
ah yes
lol
snapd 
I uninstalled snapd
ok you're good in my books
Ubuntu IRC Op
@serene bolt found a role farmer
my distro doesnt come with snapd 😛
Density of SRAM isn't a good measure but TSMC did seem to have a decent advantage there
@magic river also, it was supposed to be tied but Intel had to scale back 10nm to not be as ambitious
I was an IRC Op before anything else, iirc I only finally went through getting approved for member because they made it required for ops
my vps doesnt support snapd 
and while they got decent density it kinda sucks in most other ways
mint is pretty much my personal desires of a tweaked ubuntu.
I've heard that they are having trouble with their 7nm process, and I expect that that's why their GPU (IIRC) is going to be done on Samsung's 8nm process
its still effectively ubuntu, just a good UX built around cinnamon
Pretty sure they were doing their GPU on TSMC 7nm
wasnt there some ubuntu tablet coming out, what happened to that
iirc part of it was Intel 14nm, part was Intel 10nm, and part was TSMC 7nm with their EMIC tech to glue it all together
Ubuntu Touch was for phones
i don't really remember or care, i only looked at their marketing materials that....one time
i thought it said samsung 8nm
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Although if their 10nm SuperFin clocks as high as they say I wonder why they'd need TSMC
nop
Unless their yields are still shitty enough that large dies are a bad idea
oh! I was on there up until Wednesday, August 21st, 2019
the only reason I could think of is
bruhhh my bday was the next day
production capacity or their own manufacturing capability
dunno though, like I said I keep hearing their 7nm process is riddled with problems
That could be, they had to move some things back to 14nm just because they didn't have enough 10nm capacity
Paper for iPadOS when
iirc they even ended up moving some things back to 22nm because 14nm overflowed too due to that
Like their modems
Cool Apple is finally getting rid of lightning
iPad Pro and iPad Air are both USB-C
oh god i hated when they first switched to lightning
my ipad mini was the only device that had it
and i left the only charger at my aunt's house (which is like 15 hours from our house)
I wonder when they'll switch the iPhones over, maybe with the ones coming out next month?
so no ipad for me
If not I'd think next year's model
i suppose theyre waiting a month
I heard they had to delay some models
so maize well delay them all
Yeah they plan 4 iPhone 12 models but not all at once due to supply constraints
That's also why they weren't announced today
ye
iPhone, iPad, and Watch usually go together
I love their commitement to environmental aspects
It's unclear whether the 2 iPhone 12 versions will come first or the two 6.1" versions (12 and 12 Pro)
Rumor is 5.4" 12, 6.1" 12, 6.1" 12 Pro, and 6.7" 12 Pro
Both of the 12 would make sense if screens are the bottleneck
i wonder wy apple did live instead of premiere
iphones with usb c pls
oh pls no large screens
Remember when Apple only put out one iPhone?
whas that
And when they moved to two models it was just a refresh of the two years ago model sold as new?
the se?
Yeah, first it was just iPhone, then you had iPhone and iPhone SE
Now you have 4 "flagship" models plus the SE
SE has iphone 11 specs though
@cosmic raft ELI5?
I like the 8 skin
@slim nymph hyper-v will let Linux be the "native" OS
i get mixed thoughts reading this. is ms trying to run windows apps under linux natively?
anyone know when ios 14 actually releases?
hyper-v is like Xen so there is no actual native one but only one of them gets to use special APIs to have more direct hardware control
oh so linux hpervisor with windows guests? i assume windows requires a windows hypervisor atm?
Instead of being Hyper-V with Windows on the side for management and whatever guests you want it'll be Hyper-V with Linux on the side for management and whatever guests you want
i assume beta 8 is the same lol
so the management part runs as a separate OS instance under the host?
Considering the host is actually Hyper-V then sure
@slim nymph the second para explains really
Here we propose this patch series to make Linux run as the root partition [0]
on Microsoft Hypervisor [1].Microsoft wants to create a complete virtualization stack with Linux and
Microsoft Hypervisor. There will be a subsequent patch series to provide a
device node (/dev/mshv) such that userspace programs can create and run virtual
machines. We've also ported Cloud Hypervisor [3] over and have been able to
boot a Linux guest with Virtio devices since late July.
only explains if you know how that stuff is built already, ive never dabbled with that stuff
Usually the host is considered that Windows instance though since it's the only way to drive Hyper-V and has sole authority on setting up hardware and guests
only done the simple VM style of some host os where guests are running essentially as processes on parent
This is basically like the Xen patches for Linux to let it run as the dom0 instead of just as a domU

Do one with rory @mighty storm
ask whoever made the kneny emotes
am i the only one who makes sure i have 0 unread, but never mark an open issue as done until it's closed
I don't even use github's notification view lol
i use it so often
keeps me up to date
plus I can peek at issues that havent had any interaction for a few months and revisit it
I need to manage those. I get spammed with security notifs from older js projects
wtf are those emoji
you can turn off security notices or archive em, thats usually what I do
you don't have emojies there? 
I hate those, I guess I should just archive old projects to not be annoyed about the notifications
I read all GitHub notifications
also fuck the security thing, I have some repo that doesnt (and never had) a dependecy file, and github STILL tells me my deps are out of date, wtf
ah yes confidentiality in a mailing list email
also holy fuck, I just noticed that the emojies aren't even the same width
i didnt know about archiving
archiving just turns it off entirely, you could also just turn off those specific notifications
oh lol i havent even starred paper
oh well i would never have touched them again ever
also those are the default win 10 emojies, chew 👀
youre thinking stylish, not stylus
My textbook for my AI class is $39.99 to rent online for 180 days and $59.99 to buy online. Should I rent it or buy it?
stylish had some sort of tracker thing, privacy issue
stylus is just css modification, nothin more
nah, the issue with stylish was that it contacted userstyles for all visited pages to show styles for your current page when you opened the menu
I hate textbooks 😦
afaik stylus is a fork of stylish with the call home functionality removed
hard fork*
soft forks are pretty useless anyway
wat
Stylus forked before call home
stylus is a fork of stylish
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stylus/clngdbkpkpeebahjckkjfobafhncgmne this is what I use
Call home isn't open sure anymore iirc
maybe, but it wasn't really known before that lol
wdym
ah, stylish was sold. I see
this?
apparently they added real tracking Oo TIL https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stylish#Privacy_issues

the only thing ubuntu does right is ubuntu livepatach
@twin lagoon live patch?
kernel livepatching
uwu
(DiscordBot) https://ubuntu.com/livepatch -- Canonical Livepatch Service | Ubuntu: "Automatic Linux kernel updates for Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04 and 20.04 LTS. Apply critical patches without rebooting and keep your systems secure and..."
Automatic Linux kernel updates for Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04 and 20.04 LTS. Apply critical patches without rebooting and keep your systems secure and compliant.
this doesn't actually do major updates, though, does it?
just security
there are limits to the amount of patching you can do
this is proven by the other live patching tool, that Oracle bought
Not just security, depends what they drop out
But, it really depends on the scope of the change and the viability of it
e.g. the intel mitigations couldn't be live-patched
you can really only do very minor patches
think about it
you can't change everything that is in memory to have a different shape
not reasonably
so at best you can poke some instructions or some branches to be slightly different
moreover it kind of doesn't matter, let your systems fail
if they can't be turned off and have others take their place automatically, you're doing something wrong
glances at his old server with over 1200 days uptime
if you want to skip the reboot you can
load the new kernel into kexec and then shutdown into it
at least the hardware will remain hot
The thing is that for servers, most of what you'd care about can probably be live patched
mainly stability/security fixes
The mechanism to do it is pretty robust
Just, ofc, there is a scope to it's viablity where the scale of the patch is just going to cause so many issues applying on a hot system that it's not worth it
yeah I mean at the end of the day you'll still need to do hard upgrades
that's about it
since you already can shut off the machines because of that
you should be able to apply upgrades without live patching as well
upgrading existing hardware is generally not worth it to companies where this is really relevant, tbqh
maybe I misread that, erm
The thing is that the idea is to try to avoid reboots as much as possible, imagine if everything needed to reboot due to shellshock, etc
dammit, i have essay due tomorrow
should i wait and do it tomorrow or should i just do it tonight
create a title page
do a mindmap tonight
that way you can say you did something today
The thing is that the idea is to try to avoid reboots as much as possible, imagine if everything needed to reboot due to shellshock, etc
@golden gust shellshock isn't a kernel exploit and I can imagine that
then itll be really easy tmrw to write it quickly
No, but the point still stands
For large companies, rebooting the entire network in a "oh shit" manner ain't exactly viable
you generally have to be a few layers deep to have to attack the kernel anyway
Not to mention, that one machine on the network which people refuse to reboot because oh fuck
(ask simple about that one 😄 )
put central idea in center, then make offshoot branches of different ideas and questions/answers to each idea. do that till you have a few ideas and stuff then tomorrow you just make each idea a paragraph and expand a little bit by using your questions/answers or offshoots of the idea, then write your intro and conclusion and done @mighty storm
Just so I know where to start looking - is anyone having issues where sleeping doesn't reset a player's phantoms on the latest 1.16.3 build / is it a known bug already?
simple did you see me flash my pretty brig stuff before?
tell me I'm good
I need the confidence boost or I'll cry myself to sleep
it won't kill the existing phantoms
(Server doesn't even track the player which spawned them, etc)
I know, that's not what I mean
It should reset the sleep timer thing, however; not aware of that not working
I mean when someone sleeps phantoms are supposed to stop spawning at night for them for a while
Alright then, I'll do some testing
ur what @heady spear
look I have weird Mojang colored commands
so everyone using the API will know just how gay I am
Well, it's briadier
yeah i know
paper does expose it in the API for registering events
CommandRegisteredEvent
it's still quite hacky ngl
i tried with commodore before but it had weird bugs
define "hacky"
sometimes didn't register a random command
Most of the argument types aren't exposed by the API so you need to use NMS to access them
ah
so if you want serialisation of all mojang mapped types then well
it'll be a bit hacky
gj city, I'm proud
good
I'm in the process of mapping remaining mojang supported types to bukkit types bcuz that'll be cute
https://github.com/Sauilitired/cloud/blob/master/cloud-minecraft/cloud-paper/src/main/java/com/intellectualsites/commands/PaperBrigadierListener.java
I mean this is a hell of a lot better than dealing with Spigot
AdoptJDK Jenkins gang.
thats pretty sexy city
https://github.com/Sauilitired/cloud/blob/master/cloud-minecraft/cloud-brigadier/src/main/java/com/intellectualsites/commands/brigadier/CloudBrigadierManager.java brigadier code btw^
I'm surprised mojang actually made a half usable API
zero documentation but well
though I think NVIDIA's purchase of Arm is going to go downhill
@peak dirge IMHO it's fine
if it really becomes a problem, everyone will use RISC-V and gang up on Nvidia
and I don't really think it'll be a problem as long as nvidia is forced to respect ARM's licensing arrangements going forward
I think nvidia has been wanting to join AMD/Intel in the CPU battleground for years
but getting the bus licenses to make nForce was a major battle with Intel, so making ARM chips is the only way they can even get into the market
(why Tegra exists)
is it the 15th already?
the website is just a frontend of github releases
oh damn it do be building for several hours doe
whats new in1 5? text blocks?
records are in preview?
look at the fking page i linked
(-_-)zzz
@void void i asked adoptopenjdk, not oracle
nashorn is gone :crabsad:
nashorn more like songoda config library
👀
sucks to be you 
there ya go
here's an idea: not fucking the older phones that look at this chat
nashorn is better off anyways
people who liked it should've moved to graal a long time ago
it was unmaintained
my 5 year old android can run it just fine
hell if that can then what's the problem
its probably just brainlag
it's not gonna slow it down, it's just gifs
i have to stop all my docker services :'( my irc idle time :'(
im running my irc client in docker
do you play minecraft in docker too?
no?
man how am i supposed to know how that ancient tech works
https://github.com/AdoptOpenJDK/openjdk-jdk 60k commits, no issues?
JDK TIP mirror from https://github.com/openjdk/jdk - AdoptOpenJDK/openjdk-jdk
its a mirror
there's nothing, 0 open 0 closed
no because issues are disabled for the mainline repo
might be a bot to delete them
same with prs too, you cant delete prs
make the first issue, chew
ah shit forgot a line
man how am i supposed to know how that ancient tech works
@worn ember why would that be ancient? Lol
Thelounge is modern
ok boomer
thelounge is great
pretty sure most of java's stuff is on mercurial
@grand pewter no, java is moving everything to GitHub
👀
oh epic
So yes, it was in the past, but most projects and I think even mainline is migrated now
.g project skara
(DiscordBot) https://openjdk.java.net/projects/skara/ -- Skara - OpenJDK: "Skara. The goal of this Project is to investigate alternative SCM and code review options for the JDK source code, including options based upon Git..."
yup, one of the first things for JDK 16
me: being big brain and using configurate
also me: confused why its not creating an instance of an abstract class
https://www.techradar.com/news/minecraft-is-making-a-huge-move-that-will-change-the-game-forever
Anyone seen this yet? Cause after reading this I personally still have no clue what's going to change.
they making it 3d?
This is for bedrock and turns it into multiple servers that you move through seamlessly
Figured Bedrock would be getting all the attention again
smh my life all over again
But nice for them I suppose
...the engine isn't in java, how would it work?
by making it in java
So rewrite Aether Engine in Java?
No more modding anyway then 😛
At least not for anything Aether Engine manages
It looks like this is basically a port of Minecraft to a new engine
Not a new renderer but Aether Engine probably manages physics and networking and such
The new MC modding will be all about changing the data send to Aether Engine. I'm expecting an in-depth protocol explanation after that has been reverse engineerd :)
How bad would it be if I made an unprivileged account on my server (i.e. no sudo) with the docker group so that Jenkins can log in and execute image pulls and container restarts? Ssh key auth only
So Java is also doing Lua scripting
ah yes thats what we needed
That's how "real" games are made 😛
Engine in some high perf language, assets in data, game logic in lua
well usually they do that cuz the engine is in c or c++
seems kinda pointless if its already in java
Game logic as in "how an arrow launches depending on where you're looking, how long you pull back, etc"
The actual flight of the arrow is the physics engine in that high perf language
Well, it doesn't matter what the engine is written in if you don't need to mess with it
its just yet another layer ontop tho
Amaranth was an ubuntu dev 😮
that must be why its so unstable
Still don't quite get why people do the whole Lua thing; you've already worked with probably C++ or C# for your engine, might as well write the game logic in that as well. It's not like those languages are particularly hard or anything.
lua is easier to learn i suppose
How bad would it be if I made an unprivileged account on my server (i.e. no sudo) with the docker group so that Jenkins can log in and execute image pulls and container restarts? Ssh key auth only
@potent fossil you'll be fine as long as you keep your private key away from randoms
lol, yeah of course
I guess if you have separate people working on the engine and the game logic, yeah. If those are tge same people, well, those would already know the language of the engine.
not much you can do from jenkins anyway
unless you're logged in to an admin account ofc
jenkins would be logging in via ssh to run some commands and then log out
oh uh
I don't see any issue with that
should be fine, the private key is separate and secure
I mean - with that you basically have root access.
it doesnt have sudo access
But with docker you can elevate priviledges.
Since you contact daemon which has root access.
welp, dunno the other option and im not running a full k8s cluster
k8s 
If you have a decent ssh config, it should be fine.
But then you can just have jenkins in sudoers, the same thing.
default String foo(String arg) { return bar(arg); } is there a correct english term for this case? I mean something like: "The method foo is forwarded to the method bar." But according to wiki forwarding means something different in terms of OOP. 🤔
I mean that's kind of a getter?
has return value != getter
I'm trying to write proper docs for this method:
default double[] evaluateGradient(int n, T arguments) {
return evaluateGradient(n, arguments, evaluate(n, arguments));
}
I'm trying to describe what the default implementation does without using the code itself. That's what I currently have: The
* default implementation invokes {@link #evaluate(int, Object)} with the
* specified parameters and forwards the parameters and the result to
* {@link #evaluateGradient(int, Object, double)}.
But that sounds stupid ..
overload?
That's almost currying but no
Oh, whoops, I did the thing the wiki points out and mixed it up with partial function application
honestly sounds like a way wordier version of "The default implementation calls the {link int,obj,double} overload with the result of the {link evaluate} method as the third param"
it's implied that the first two params are the same since it's an overload
okay thanks, sounds better.
so assuming one would write a wiki that contains information about multiple plugins: would you guys prefer all the information about one plugin to be on a single page (commands, permissions, examples etc. kinda like wikipedia does it) or have sub pages for that stuff?
i'd make a category for one, then sub categories for all documentation
if that makes any sense, words are hard
Still don't quite get why people do the whole Lua thing; you've already worked with probably C++ or C# for your engine, might as well write the game logic in that as well. It's not like those languages are particularly hard or anything.
another reason is accessibility
its a lot easier to just slap something together in lua than it is to get a full IDE set up
using any language without an IDE is a pain though
I think that's what I'm going to use. I know the second sentence is kind of redundant and unnecessary but it's very clear now.
* {@link #evaluateGradient(int, Object, double)} with
* {@link #evaluate(int, Object)} as third parameter. Otherwise the same
* parameters are used for both methods.```
Thanks again for helping me out.
@wide chasm its much faster to test changes in Lua code than recompiling game, as well as if you intend to have a user facing api Lua is a natural choice
Why Lua out of all languages though? Last time I looked at Lua it didn't seem that great.
It has a really close binding to c/c++
Lua is one of the languages best suited for scripting an existing piece of software
It has no standard library and can only do things you explicitly provide to it
I mean, it has a standard library but by default it's not available
Easy to bind native code into the environment with low overhead
So you can restrict IO and such by just not enabling that
I don't know if I'd say low overhead but lower than a JNI call certainly 😛
I see, that would make sense in such an environment I suppose.
Doesn't sound very good for a normal standalone programming language, though
i sure as hell have not heard of any other major language being as easy to even tie into. i think someones trying for nodejs but not heard anything solid. never heard of it for php or python either.
its one thing to add native modules to a language, its another to run a language i a foreign process it doesnt control and let that environment control you
the language has to be loaded as a library instead of the controlling process, and expose apis to let a controller tell the interpeter how to behave
the simple fact lua has that work done saves game developers a ton of time not redoing that work for another language, so lua commonly gets used
WoW uses Lua for it's addons as well
And ComputerCraft uses it for it's user operating environment
yeah, it fucking sucks lol. I wish they used a proper language
I have used it standalone but yeah there's 0 reason to, might as well use nosejs or python, you'll have an infinitely better experience.
anything that is not zero-indexed is not a real programming language
CC Lua is alright. It's what got me into programming tbh since it's pretty much as easy to use as basic.
big head
it finally rained here yesterday
nice
we can see the real sky!
hasnt it been deprecated for ages now?
probably, he never removes deprecated methods
there's an actual profile api
by the time its removed spigot wont exist anymore
you think spigot can die?
slow and painful death
and the getShoulderEntity methods are all deprecated too
what is a sky
Same kash
nice superstore
thanks
its ok, it'll get colder 
"anymore" chew?
that's what it looked like yesterday here
that has been there since the UUID update lmao
Bukkit team deprecated all player-name methods iirc
we can't see downtown, but at least we can see up
yeah, should've been replaced by an actual api around the profile cache with async operations and all that
but it wasn't
"how to get command input?" 
Yes
i mean, whats the easiest way to find an offlineplayer via username
um names are used for commands too kash 😛
i know my own uuid out of my head
yeah talkin /bruh moment, what if moment is offline
don't use getOfflinePlayer, use the PlayerProfile or the cache directly
cache me outside how about dah
well offline support sucks, it can really kill performance, better off using external db
at least there you have actual control over what happens, getOfflinePlayer will just call straight to mojang if its not cached
but i do want to add a sqlite db in front of name based lookups
just use mc-heads
does this do anything other than change format? lol
just cause mc is weird and sends commands and chat in same packet doesnt mean its same! 😛
yeah, I actually run a mongo cache of username->uuid mapping lol
thats illegal chew
no it doesn't, at least not in 8
[int] is obviously the one choice to trigger everyone though
i like how it tagged everyone 
what did he announce though? a vbucks giveaway?
it was 34°C here today, in fucking september
feels great outside here
hottest 15th September in history lul
"it'll get colder soon, dont you worry" -trump
idk what meds he's taking but i want some too
dw rants over
whats the diff?
What's that?
typo inspection config
trying to make it ignore like variable names, only stuff within "quotes"
@vernal moth https://youtu.be/-FUQ6ZxTkM8 lmao germans really are a different breed
an ugly monospace font used for UI
how tf do i turn that off then tux
Then use Process literals
jenkins pipeline do be killing me
i just copied it from geyser lol
oohh much better
What did you copy from Geyser?
There, got mine working
That's horrible. Good thing my pipelines are p much the same for everything now
ill be copy pasting that one
this comment section is now property of the german republic kekw
lies, you got a bot pinging for geyser
ok now how do i erase all the failed builds in jenkins cuz that shit is embarassing

delete builds, set next build number to the last successful + 1

well anyway, yea, for most of my projects that pipeline is copypastable save for changing the repo URL and whatever. so pretty nice, ill make my other projects now :D
oh shit i never tested git webhook 
geyser team walking in when "Geyser" is mentioned
As long as you don't break builds on production branches it's just part of the fun of development
having production branches in minecraft hahahahah not all of us can run mc at that scale 😛
still going 😄
we use our 1.9 network as a base for most stuff, backport to 1.8 where relevant and then forwardport to MCO when it's needed
each version has a production and staging network branch
is we cubecraft
Git discipline is either learnt very early on or very painfully
yes it's a royal we chew
i am cubecraft now 
hire me i will add rory pictures
what is your title actually lol, your not owner right?
rory is warm :3
Wait what does zed own 
only one of the largest MC servers lol
pssh no biggie
oh ok
nothing too big
i need namesss
CubeCraft
Join chew, it's a good server
